Relentless fraud, corruption, and cultural and political pressures frustrated President Grant's effort to reform Indian policy. A conspiracy of military, railroad, and mining interests destroyed the Fort Laramie Treaty, leading to the drumbeat of war. The plains tribes' last great victory at Greasy Grass would win the bitter spoils of total defeat. "They came from the land of the Great Father, as many as grasshoppers in summer. With them the spirits of the people were driven from the land.""-- $c Provided by publisher. 630 00 $a Treaty between the United States of America and different tribes of Sioux Indians $d (1868) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Westerns. 941 $a 5 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305020054.0 952 $l FDPC194 $d 20210504013813.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20200602010947.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20200502011945.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20200502010222.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=346E7A948C3A11EAB4A2F82B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
